The Ayrshire Walking and Wheeling Festival, including wheelchair and buggy friendly options is taking place from 20th -29th September 2024 with a variety of walks right across Ayrshire showcasing the fantastic walking opportunities there are in the area.
There will be a huge choice of walks available from short health walks to strenuous full day hikes. Some walks are suitable for children and families, some will suit all ages and abilities including those wheeling, whilst others will be more suitable for people who are fitter. There are nature walks, history walks, bat walks, Nordic walks, health walks, walks suitable for furry friends and much more.
Community groups and organisations will be leading many of the festival walks with the aim to promote walking and how it can improve health and wellbeing as well as encouraging people to consider a greener way to travel for short journeys.
Funding has been provided by North Ayrshire Council, Strathclyde Partnership for Transport, Ayrshire Roads Alliance, North Ayrshire Green Health Partnership, South Ayrshire Health Walks / Thriving Communities and The Outdoor Partnership.
We are grateful to all the organisations and individuals who have supported the festival by offering to lead walks or by providing financial support. The event couldn’t happen without you!
